Gofman, professor of medical physics at the University of California and a leading nuclear critic, speaks of “ecocide“ in his adversary view of nuclear technology, he means the following. A large nucl
12、ear plant like that in Kalkar, the Netherlands, would produce about 200 pounds of plutonium each year. One pound, released into the atmosphere, could cause 9 billion cases of lung cancer. This waste product must be stored for 500,000 years before it is of no further danger to man. In the anticipated
13、 reactor economy, it is estimated that there will be 10,000 tons of this material in Western Europe, of which one table-spoonful of plutonium-239 represents the official maximum permissible body burden for 200,000 people. Rather than being biodegradable, plutonium destroys biological properties.In 1
14、972 the .U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration ruled that the asbestos level in the work place should be lowered to 2 fibers per cubic centimeter of air, but the effective date of the ruling has been delayed until now. The International Federation of Chemical and General Workers Unions
15、report that the 2-fiber standard was based primarily on one study of 290 men at a British asbestos factory. But when the workers at the British factory had been reexamined by another physician, 40-70 percent had X-ray evidence of lung abnormalities. According to present medical information at the fa
16、ctory in question, out of a total of 29 deaths thus far, seven were caused by lung cancer. An average European or American worker comes into contact with six million fibers a day. “We are now, in fact, finding cancer deaths within the family of the asbestos worker,“ states Dr. Irving Selikoff, of th
17、e Mount Sinai Medical School in New York.It is now also clear that vinyl chloride, a gas from which the most widely used plastics are made, causes a fatal cancer of the blood-vessel cells of the liver. However, the history of the research on vinyl chloride is, in some ways, more disturbing than the
18、“Watergate cover- up. “ “There has been evidence of potentially serious disease among polyvinyl chloride workers for 25 years that has been incompletely appreciated and inadequately approached by medical scientists and by regulatory authorities,“ summed up Dr. Selikoff in the New Scientist. At least
19、 17 workers have been killed by vinyl chloride because research over the past 25 years was not followed up. And for over 10 years, workers have been exposed to concentrations of vinyl chloride 10 times the “safe limit“ imposed by Dow Chemical Company.（分数：10.00）(1).By “ecocide“ the author most probab

If youre like millions of Americans, you probably vowed to lose weight, quit smoking and drink less in the new year. You kicked off January with a commitment to
25、long-term well-being-until you came face-to-face with a cheeseburger. You spent a bundle on a shiny new gym pass. Turns out, it wasnt reason enough for you to actually use the gym. People can make poor decisions when it comes to health-despite their best intentions. Its not easy abiding by wholesome
26、 choices (giving up French fries) when the consequences of not doing so (heart disease) seem so far in the future. Most people are bad at judging their health risks: smokers generally know cigarettes cause cancer, but they also tend to believe theyre less likely than other smokers to get it. And as
27、any snack-loving dieter can attest, people can be comically inept at predicting their future .behavior. You swear you will eat just one potato chip but dont stop until the bag is empty. So, what does it take to motivate people to stick to the path set by their conscious brain? How can good choices b

Meet your new personal trainer: your boss. American businesses have a particular interest in personal health, since worker il
29、lness costs them billions each year in insurance claims, sick days and high staff turnover. A 2008 survey of major US employers found that 64% consider their employees poor health decisions a serious barrier to affordable insurance coverage. Now some companies are tackling the motivation problem hea
30、d on, using tactics drawn from behavioral psychology to nudge their employees to get healthy. “Its a bit paradoxical that employers need to provide incentives for people to improve their own health,“ says Michael Follick, a behavioral psychologist at Brown University and president of the consultancy
31、 Abacus Employer Health Solutions. Paradoxical, maybe, but effective. Consider Amica Mutual Insurance, based in Rhode Island. Arnica seemed to be doing everything right: it boasts an on-site fitness center at its headquarters. It pays toward Weight Watchers and smoking-cessation help, gives gift car
32、ds to reward proper prenatal care and offers free flu shots each year. Still, in the mid-2000s, about 7% of the companys insured population, including roughly 3 100 employees and their dependents, had diabetes. “We manage risk. Thats our core business,“ says Scott Boyd, Amicas director of compensati

But diabetes-related claims from Arnica employees had doubled in four years. “We thought, OK,“ Boyd says now, “we have to manage these high-risk groups a little better. /（分数：10.00）(1).In the first paragraph, we can infer that the Americans _.

34、lose weight C have poor decision in keeping healthy diet D succeed in losing weight（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Why can people make poor decision when it comes to health? A Because they have no intention of being healthy. B Because they are bad at judging their health risks. C Because it is not easy abiding

Similarly, the
38、 virus that causes influenza is constantly changing at random and, one day, will mutate in a way that will enable it to infect billions of people, and to kill millions. Many experts now believe a global outbreak of pandemic flu is overdue, and that the next one could be as bad as the one in 1918, wh
39、ich killed somewhere between 25m and 50m people. Today however, advances in medicine offer real hope that another such outbreak can be contained-if governments start preparing now.New research published this week suggests that a relatively small stockpile of an antiviral drug-as little as 3m doses-c
40、ould be enough to limit sharply a flu pandemic if the drugs were deployed quickly to people in the area surrounding the initial outbreak. The drugs manufacturer, Roche, is talking to the World Health Organisation about donating such a stockpile.This is good news. But much more needs to be done, espe
41、cially with a nasty strain of avian flu spreading in Asia which could mutate into a threat to humans. Since the SARS outbreak in 2003 a few countries have developed plans in preparation for similar episodes. But progress has been shamefully patchy, and there is still far too little international coo
42、rdination.A global stockpile of drugs alone would not be much use without an adequate system of surveillance to identify early cases and a way of delivering treatment quickly, If an outbreak occurred in a border region, for example, a swift response would most likely depend on prior agreements betwe
43、en different countries about quarantine and containment.Reaching such agreements is rarely easy, but that makes the task all the more urgent, Rich countries tend to be better prepared than poor ones, but this should be no consolation to them. Flu does not respect borders. It is in everyones interest
44、 to make sure that developing countries, especially in Asia, are also well prepared. Many may bridle at interference from outside. But if richer nations were willing to donate anti-viral drugs and guarantee a supply of any vaccine that becomes available, poorer nations might be willing to reach agre
45、ements over surveillance and preparedness.Simply sorting out a few details now will have lives (and recriminations) later. Will there be enough ventilators, makes and drugs? Where will people be treated if the hospitals overflow? Will food be delivered as normal? Too many countries have no answers t
